Microsoft Corp. Chief Executive Officer Satya Nadella said he will “hold nothing back” to get the company’s programs across all devices, in a clear departure from the software maker’s longtime focus on its Windows operating system.
At his first public speech since taking the CEO job last month, Nadella unveiled Office software for Apple Inc.’s iPad, the first time Microsoft is putting the popular productivity programs onto the tablet. Nadella also said the company’s goal is to get its Internet-based Office 365 service on any gadget, even if it reduces sales of Windows-based personal computers or other products.
